I am a 29 year old who is married, my mother is sick and has no one to care for her because my 2 older sisters live out of town. She is now living with us and I do not have a social life or a couple life with my husband. I dont know what to do. I feel angry at my sisters for not helping me out and find this unfair. How can I cope with this crazy situation?
Do you have any close friends that could maybe sit with your mom for an evening to watch a movie or something ? I have a dear friend from childhood who has graciously stepped in to run little errands or take mother to minor appts such as hair & manicures. She was always a very vain person, and at 86 she still is !! I've NEVER had a manicure, but mother was ready to call some elder abuse hotline because of it haha. I laugh on the outside but cry on the inside because it's such a hard situation. So if you have any friends you could ask, please do. It really helps. :)
